haiz...most of the singaporean know only is complain complain complain...can't they think how the train operator have to face during this time? seriously before complaining i think we should think in their shoe for once before complaining...anw I will still travel in MRT who cares of one little breakdown ;)
i don't agree with the uploader saying that we keep complaining about the gov. etc.
if u are travelling on public transport and especially on MRT, there are just far too often breakdown and even catastrophic type and if u can recall how much have they spent to improve on service quality alone let not talk about safety in this case ?
Some take picture or video especially man because when they got home, their wife will be asking " why are you late? Go city for prostitution or what?" that's how we got divorce high rates
We Singaporeans have got to relax a little. Complaining and criticizing the government or SMRT for the delays and technical faults could be good. But until when are we going to complain. Fact is we still need them and their services. Mistakes happen and life needs to go on.
One must remember, Minister, Political group , Goverment change. The middle management dont. We should look at them.These ppl earn big bucks too and are usually under the firing line. Look are all the jia liu type. They belong to this group.
I am a train enthusiast and as we can see the CEO of SMRT is a big pig because she can't even give a sh*t for the fellow Singaporeans, so don't blame us, blame the CEO.
from damaged seen(newspaper), something was protruding to damage the contact shoe. It was ok earlier, that means screw loose due to vibration. thats ok, just screw the maintenance officer in charge. If broken, then screw the procurement in charge. Anyway, The goverment must make it a point to fire the person that benefit the most financially from the public service business, A business where citizen do not have much choice to choose.
I always look out the train and wonder the feeling of being outside , in the tunnel & I always wanted to have the experience . If I were to be on train that day , It'll be my lucky day !
oh damm. they going to increase SMRT ticket price to compensate for the damage cost, foriegn experts and fine that the goverment going to slap them with.
Make sure the next management does not own a car. They should all be made to take trains to work. Then they will know the world of shit we are in. With our foreign experts, technologies, scholars holding all decision making decisions and multimillion salaried talents, How can this happen? Like always, slap on the wrist with a fine that is less than one days takings. Warning and CEO goes off to another GLC. By the way, who are the shareholders that used public funds for capitalization?
Why are we making noise?Simply because this is not an accident. It is a failure in maintenance. It means, ppl are sleeping on the job,not changing parts when they are due time, not buying actual parts but cheapo parts, not employing and properly trained personnel, Saving cost? Worst- max profits!. We are lucky that it is just a breakdown.If the train had derailed,a fire breaking out? Does anybody have any idea how many people would have died! Ignorant fools, Somebody should hang for this.
Such childish Singaporeans, train breakdown then ask CEO to step down? Who the hell are you? If you know how to use words, then why not you replace her position? Managing a train system is not easy as it seems. Please grow up, you are too simple-minded.
6. Bus system no need so much infrastrcture. No need the BIG National stadium sized bishan depot. No need signalling system, automatic brake and all that shit on the rail. No need big 100m long station.Just road , parking space and bus stop will do.
7. Bus is less prone to terrorist. terrorist blow up one bus, they kill 60 ppl only. If they blow MRT, they kill 1,000 people.
8. Bus is more reliable than MRT. I take bus as much as MRT. whole life, I saw only 1 bus failure. 3 mths 3 mrt failure
4. Train must stop at every stop. If you live in Woodlands and travel to Raffles, got 12over stop in between, then must waste 2 mins every stop to pick up passenger = waste 1/2 hour. Bus can redeploy some bus to pickup at Woodlands, some to AMK ...and they can all join the same highway and go directly to city center.
5. Expressway speed limit is 90kmh. So bus highway should also safely can go 90kmh. Already when i sit in bus at lentor, the bus only travel at 50kmh, already keep up with mrt.
@ASSHOLELA and what sort of progression are u talking about? are we not better than our neighbours? Do we not earn top spots in various places? Are these not progression? Get out of ur comfort zone and make urself useful instead of expecting government to feed u all the time baby. Singapore is just small, like it or not population will be a problem. there is a limit to the amount of frequency of trains. Are u expecting SMRT to conjure up magic? Dont be stupid.
So? even if we are number one we still have to progress. LKY said this himself. Or else the rest will catch up. Complacency is our downfall.
Im making myself useful by giving suggestions. I wrote the same in ST forums as well. You on the other hand, are nothing useful.
Singapore is not small, its one of the top 50 largest cities in the world. Other cities of similar sizes can handle or do away with this problem. Like Adelaide. Why cant we?
And its exactly because that trains cant run at such a frequency that we should do phase it out and replace with a bus system. Trains are fundamentally flawed in this respect, frequency. Our old guard noted this themselves and anticipated that the population will never grow to such a extent as to cause problems. But it has. in 1980, there was no such concept as BRT. MRT was the most viable solution.
back then noone thought of dedicated busways. Its always bus on the road shared with cars. So I dont blame them. But today, countries like columbia, Australia, Brazil and France are experimenting with BRT and found it an extradordinary success.
However, Singaporeans, and todays govt are too status quo mindset such that change is very hard to make. They think that since we already adopt MRT might as well continue to improve it without changing. So such problems.
1. Bus highway can have multiple lanes. Not stupid ONE LANE MRT TRACK; If one train stall the whole line stall because kenna blocked. If bus stall other bus can overtake.
2. Also because many lanes can handle more buses at once. That means can carry more people.
3. Bus no need so big frequency like 2-3mins. Train must put that stupid signalling system to avoid crash. But you see the bus on the road can literally tailgate one another.
They should replace the stupid inefficient faulty MRT TRAIN system with BUS. LTA say bus suffer from traffic congestion.Not bus that go on public road, But Bus which go on DEDICATED HIGHWAY, like train never suffer from congestion. If they can build NSE, they surely got space to build BUS HIGHWAY.
But no. LTA build even more MRT line which mean even more chance of disruption. Then they build NSE for more cars then the cars number go up again in 5 yrs then it also congested.LTA = stupid.
@ASSHOLELA dont be stupid la. Just 1 freaking isolated incident that happened 3 times in a short period in 20 years and u complain train is stupid and inefficient.
@JJayChannel: So what you are saying if you goof up at your job continuously, its ok? Mistake after mistake after mistake. Already SMRT had said, it is not wear and tear.
The commuters suffer, the shareholder laughing to the bank with SMRT dividend, top management still inside the cool and bright office talk cook sing song, need to ask when is the last time the politician take mrt?
I think its about time SMRT personnel should wake up from their daydreaming!! it is very disturbing to see how the MRT personnel react unprofessionally during the chaos. After this incident, they should undergo a progressive and intensive training on how to handle problem that arise in an unexpected circumstances. SMRT should improve on their system now and then. Five hours of downtime; it is unacceptable.
I think SMRT cannot be blamed completely for the incident as there will definitely be wear and tear on the tracks and human errors is unavoidable. This is similar to your electrical appliances undergoing wear and tear and will break down sooner or later. I think this is only an incident for SMRT to reflect and I believe that SMRT will learn from this incident and better manage such situations if it occurs again in the future.
@JJayChannel True, but I doubt any reflection on their part is going to happen. Their CEO is going to show up, apologize, then wake up tmr as if nothing ever happened...just as she always does.
@JJayChannel when you increase fares for stupid unnecessary reasons and call yourself a "First World Transport". Customers/passengers have every right to blame SMRT. if you have shits like mrt stuck underground and fully packed trains then dont increase the fares.
@KouzukeRan The thing is, they DO examine the tracks every day. I used to live near an MRT track so that's how I know. From midnight to about 2am there's a yellow maintenance train which runs along the tracks to check for faults
@Channe1F2k Right... they check everyday... Right now, those words and such actions... mean nothing.
Even if they did check, these episodes show that the 'checks' failed to detect the flaws on the track. Either that or that they ignored the flaws till it got to such a level.
Either way, it boils down to negligence, which is the perfect word to describe such a situation.
@JJayChannel My electrical appliances which undergo wear and tear do not affect thousands of commuters for more than 5 hours. Being the main provider of such public services in our country, they have to ensure that such incidents do not happen AT ALL.
@JJayChannel Saying such incidents are unavoidable is just a lousy excuse. The long time they took for the commuters to evacuate shows their poor management and unpreparedness to handle such situations. Furthermore, the message that was sent to the taxis really made numerous people enraged. Their poor excuse of "using the wrong template" and the sacarstic content of the message shows SMRT is not at all apologetic.
@MsFreakinfunny In 20 years of service, a problem arise for its first time and u complain so much. And there is nothing wrong with the message send by smrt to comfort drivers. Already, singaporeans like urself r complainnig of lack of taxis. With the train breaking down, u want taxis to come. Using income opportunity is true and logical to attract drivers to the affected locations. Which taxi driver out of town want to go all the way there specially to fetch u? They are not obliged to do so.
@TsJuSck Wow. Your last comment is amazing. By that logic, if SQ crashed and a few hundred people died, it will be ok to send this message to the undertaker "Money making opportunity. A lot of new corpses coming your way from SQ crash. Be prepare to celebrate a profitable year!"
complacent people like you who somehow manages to get into PAP are the reason why the country never progresses in efficiency. So what if there are 3 disruptions in 20 years? One disruption is one too many, besides, there is not only 3 disruptions in 20 years, but over 20 disruptions in the past 3 years. And they are getting more and more common.
and the problem has always persisted. Almost every month I encounter a disruption of at least 15mins on the track. And thats only me. What about the total frequency?
And what about the longstanding problem on congesion? even if MRT does not spoil, its congested. It cannot handle the number of passengers who take MRT every day.And not only once in a while congested. Its every day. Should we not do something about it?
@ASSHOLELA OH dont be so stupid. What has this got to do with PAP? u expect PAP to send their man down to check the lines? PAP has to do every small things like repairing ur lines? Authority and responsibility are given to SMRT and it is not a government company, only government intervention. Give them some time to solve the problem. If u know nothing about things, dont think its so easy to fix problems over night. Dont be so quick to nibble at others.
PAP = govt is responsible for the master plan of the entire nation. They should anticipate such problems with an MRT network. Especially congestion. They should also realise like transport analysts have,I quote from STimes that MRT is no longer viable in a city with this population, and that reliability will suffer given increased passenger load and frequency. its not their problem with maintainance. Its their problem with going ahead of the current build more MRT plans.
Don't worry, when Workers Party and Tan Jee Seng come into power, everything in Singapore will be perfect. There will be no transport problem, no housing problem, everybody will have a job and Singaporeans will live happily ever after.
Oho. we have a troll here who challenges others to make themselves useful to Singapore when they have actually also not contributed anything themselves , not a suggestion, other than their vulgar criticisms of others.
Get a life or get out of Singapore. Singapore can do better with foreigners than people like you.
comeon. They perform maintainance. Would you wait 10 yrs for your freezer to completely break down Then all your food rot and you get stomachache before you replace? Same, SMRT must replace that 3rd rail before it completely wear and tear until die! But they didnt. So their fault.
@ZestaRoxs no power, back up fan also no use. they should have open the back up door in the first place but they delay till forever then open. slow response

I think SMRT cannot be blamed completely for the incident as there will definitely be wear and tear on the tracks and human errors is unavoidable. This is similar to your electrical appliances undergoing wear and tear and will break down sooner or later. I think this is only an incident for SMRT to reflect and I believe that SMRT will learn from this incident and better manage such situations if it occurs again in the future.

@JJayChannel True, but I doubt any reflection on their part is going to happen. Their CEO is going to show up, apologize, then wake up tmr as if nothing ever happened...just as she always does.

@JJayChannel when you increase fares for stupid unnecessary reasons and call yourself a "First World Transport". Customers/passengers have every right to blame SMRT. if you have shits like mrt stuck underground and fully packed trains then dont increase the fares.

@JJayChannel uhh... you DO realise... if your electronics break down, the onus is on the owner to replace/fix the appliance.
So... your point... just proves... NEGLIGENCE on SMRT's part... so... in a roundabout manner... yes, you agree that it is SMRT's fault...

@KouzukeRan The thing is, they DO examine the tracks every day. I used to live near an MRT track so that's how I know. From midnight to about 2am there's a yellow maintenance train which runs along the tracks to check for faults
Channe1F2k 2 months ago
@Channe1F2k Right... they check everyday... Right now, those words and such actions... mean nothing.
Even if they did check, these episodes show that the 'checks' failed to detect the flaws on the track. Either that or that they ignored the flaws till it got to such a level.
Either way, it boils down to negligence, which is the perfect word to describe such a situation.

@JJayChannel My electrical appliances which undergo wear and tear do not affect thousands of commuters for more than 5 hours. Being the main provider of such public services in our country, they have to ensure that such incidents do not happen AT ALL.

@JJayChannel Saying such incidents are unavoidable is just a lousy excuse. The long time they took for the commuters to evacuate shows their poor management and unpreparedness to handle such situations. Furthermore, the message that was sent to the taxis really made numerous people enraged. Their poor excuse of "using the wrong template" and the sacarstic content of the message shows SMRT is not at all apologetic.

@MsFreakinfunny In 20 years of service, a problem arise for its first time and u complain so much. And there is nothing wrong with the message send by smrt to comfort drivers. Already, singaporeans like urself r complainnig of lack of taxis. With the train breaking down, u want taxis to come. Using income opportunity is true and logical to attract drivers to the affected locations. Which taxi driver out of town want to go all the way there specially to fetch u? They are not obliged to do so.

@TsJuSck Wow. Your last comment is amazing. By that logic, if SQ crashed and a few hundred people died, it will be ok to send this message to the undertaker "Money making opportunity. A lot of new corpses coming your way from SQ crash. Be prepare to celebrate a profitable year!"

complacent people like you who somehow manages to get into PAP are the reason why the country never progresses in efficiency. So what if there are 3 disruptions in 20 years? One disruption is one too many, besides, there is not only 3 disruptions in 20 years, but over 20 disruptions in the past 3 years. And they are getting more and more common.

@TsJuSck
and the problem has always persisted. Almost every month I encounter a disruption of at least 15mins on the track. And thats only me. What about the total frequency?
And what about the longstanding problem on congesion? even if MRT does not spoil, its congested. It cannot handle the number of passengers who take MRT every day.And not only once in a while congested. Its every day. Should we not do something about it?
ASSHOLELA 2 months ago
@ASSHOLELA OH dont be so stupid. What has this got to do with PAP? u expect PAP to send their man down to check the lines? PAP has to do every small things like repairing ur lines? Authority and responsibility are given to SMRT and it is not a government company, only government intervention. Give them some time to solve the problem. If u know nothing about things, dont think its so easy to fix problems over night. Dont be so quick to nibble at others.
TsJuSck 2 months ago
@TsJuSck
PAP = govt is responsible for the master plan of the entire nation. They should anticipate such problems with an MRT network. Especially congestion. They should also realise like transport analysts have,I quote from STimes that MRT is no longer viable in a city with this population, and that reliability will suffer given increased passenger load and frequency. its not their problem with maintainance. Its their problem with going ahead of the current build more MRT plans.

Don't worry, when Workers Party and Tan Jee Seng come into power, everything in Singapore will be perfect. There will be no transport problem, no housing problem, everybody will have a job and Singaporeans will live happily ever after.

comeon. They perform maintainance. Would you wait 10 yrs for your freezer to completely break down Then all your food rot and you get stomachache before you replace? Same, SMRT must replace that 3rd rail before it completely wear and tear until die! But they didnt. So their fault.
